I met the Senator for the first time about a year ago when Fine Gael launched a document on diversity and...

Over time, some of those people were accommodated privately,...
- Seanad: Health (Miscellaneous Provisions) (No. 2) Bill 2024: Second and Subsequent Stages (10 Jul 2024)
Martin Conway: I welcome the Minister of State. I want to put on record that she is probably one of the most progressive Ministers in the Government. She listens to people, she understands where they are coming from and she reacts. This legislation exactly embodies her approach to politics. Everything has unintended consequences and we sometimes have to deal with those unintended consequences....
